Yes, I changed my mind since making that post, I am just about finished with the Assassin's trilogy and will read the live ship trilogy before the Tawny man. I will probably read either Moving pictures or the first of the Dresden files novels before going into the live ships, just to clean my reading palate. I have all of the books in this series except the Rain Wild Chronicles, which I might never read.

Like it matters smh, it's like you women push yourself to enjoy something more just because another woman made it. Stupid way of thinking.

TheEtruscanTyrant yes obviously because women are more talented, smarter and more open minded on a general scale.

Haha, I had exactly the same reaction!

@@witchf4ce310 You're delirious.

x and you’re male so your response is not very surprising.

Thank you thank you!! Yeah, I want to be better about mentioning triggers, and Liveship Traders does not shy away from any tough topics and I didn't want to blind side people.

Yay!!! I'm so excited for you!!

Thank you!! I can't wait to see what you think!

Oh yes!!! I hope you enjoy!!

That's not a bad way to go!! It's an amazing trilogy with some of my favorite characters I've ever encountered!!

Mad Ship is my FAVORITE of the trilogy!!! I love Paragon so much!!

Yes!!!! I am so excited for you!!!

Thank you!! I hope you like them!!

Adriel Belmonte your English is great

Is that The Inheritance? I think that's my plan as well. I'm focused on finishing RoTE next year, and we'll see if I manage the short stories.

What Cass Read Yeah. Then she’s got a couple spread out over different anthologies. No “necessary” reads but it’s always fun to be in the world and read her work 😊

Yes!!! I hope you love!!!

Haha...hopefully this helps!!

You've probably been told this, but the live ship trilogy is amazing!

Michael Rae she starts talking about them at 11:00

You really shouldn't continue after Liveship Traders without going back to Farseer then jumping to Tawny Man. After Farseer/Liveships they really begin to build off each other and there will be character overlaps/moments that you'd miss the significance of.

@@WhatCassRead thank you! 😊

I've also heard that Fool's Fate is better than Assassin's Fate, but I'm really okay with however the story ends.

INSTANT SUB

OMG YESS!!! I always want people to read Robin Hobb...I push it on all my friends!!!

Read LST before Tawny Man. Not required but you will get a lot out of it by going in chronological order. I am reading them right now too.

@@godmathias I just ordered the LS novels. I have been convinced by others that I will regret not reading those in order and have decided to take their advice. I read the first hundred pages of Ship of Destiny, much of which took place in Bington, in the Rain Wilds. I was completely put off by that dismal place, the corrosive river, and the corrosive swamps. But friends told me that the story is mostly seafaring and not in the Rain wilds.

Haha!!! That's what I'm looking forward to as well!!!

If you hadn’t already started Liveships I would say it wouldn’t be an issue, but now you know what’s happening with the characters and there are characters that pop up in Fool’s Errand. What happens to them would be a major spoiler.

@@WhatCassRead okey so now it would be better for me to complete Liveship first. Okey I believe you, thanks for answering! :D

I hope you'll love it too!!! I'm not sure if Goodreads makes it confusing for folks who read the whole series, because some of the books are listed as Liveship Traders, and some of them are listed under Realm of the Elderlings. But no, there are only three books in the Liveship Traders series.

@@WhatCassRead Thank you for ypur answer ! As a result I think the French editions are different and therefore quite confusing :/ Anyway, I'll give them a try someday ;)

@@laurie7032 i’m french too and still a little confused oon how to read them Could you tell me the names of the books in french? Thanks!

Feeble Scream Hello! Forging is how they refer to the towns and people that have become (for lack of a better word) those zombie-like people. They named it after the town of Forge where Fitz first encountered it. 👍

@@WhatCassRead ok thanks .. i think this book is very similar to game of thrones grrm had obviously read this before he wrote it😀😀have a nice day

Wow! I'm not sure I'd do something on Zoom, but perhaps a live show. There is the #Elderlingalong hosted by Becca and the Books in the meantime. We're about to host the live show for Royal Assassin on June 7th.

What Cass Read Okay understood. I started listening to Is Fitz Happy podcast. Thanks for the reply and suggestions!

😭😭

You're welcome!
